Neah Marie Lanoie was born just a little while ago. David called with the news. 7lbs7oz. I have no idea how long.

I have a grand daughter!!

And to tell you the truth she has the nickname I had as an itty bitty thing. Dad always called me “Neah” (as in nay-ah). I guess one of my verbally challenged siblings couldn’t handle the Lin part of my name.

So please God – give me a safe trip as I go down to see this new marvel that has just entered our lives.

Yes, I thought about the pronunciation when I saw the name and wondered if she was named after you. I do recall calling you that all the time when we were young. Maybe I was the verbally challenged one! Looking forward to seeing the pictures. Joye
